And I like to think I'm a good photographer but I just don't have her patience. If I can't get the shot in 10 minutes (or 15 shots in 10 minutes), well, it's time to move on. Plus, my photography interest really isn't with birds.
My interest is with flowers...
or sunsets...
or Charli.
Every time we go to the San Juans, my MIL asks if we're taking bird pictures for her to see. This time I made the effort.
These certainly aren't wonderful...blue heron tend to be pretty skittish as you near them. So these were shot from a distance; then cropped.
Don't be looking for digital perfection here. But they're okay shots.

Then there's this picture of my favorite subjects.
And I know she'll like it because they're also two of her favorite subjects!
And no, I am not a bit biased.
I mean, come on...look at that sunset and tell me that is not beautiful.
Or that one.
It was just like living in pictures from a travel magazine.
And of course, part of the charm is the sailboats reflecting in the water.
This was the view from our bed the first night. It's difficult to close your eyes when this is the view outside your window.
